    Drove past Junction Oval this morning and saw a group of players training.

    The only one I could pick up was Jonesy, as his bald head was shinning in the light :D

    The players might be going through some testing before the official pre-season start on Wednesday.

    Have been for a short while, a small group of players hard at it.

    I can't wait to see the players who have spent the most time in the pub and out at KFC. They'll be in for a rude shock, if anyone heard Bailey's speech at the B & F.

    just in from MELBOURNEfc Members' Email

    2008 begins

    The Club’s 2008 campaign starts tomorrow, with players commencing pre-season training with a conditioning and skills session at Junction Oval. It will be Dean Bailey’s first training session as senior coach, while new recruit John Meesen will take part in his first training session at the Club after recently being traded to MELBOURNEfc from Adelaide. The session will start at 9.30 am and all members are welcome.

    I'd love to watch the first one but as I'm not in Vic I'll be missing out

    If anyone goes can they post a little about the session?

    cheers

    I'm tempted to football-nerd it up and pop down for a shifty. I'm on Swot-Vac atm and don't have any exams till the 15th, so I have plenty of time on my hands.

    Yes we interstaters sure appreciate the reports and pics that you guys can give us over summer.

    If it wasn't for them I think I would go mad.

    Haha Coxy don't tell me you don't have your license...

    Yeah I guess I could do that. We can be the Demonland paparazzi and report who's been in the gym and who's been on the gin. PM me your address if you're genuinely keen mate. Would be better to go with somebody else rather than standing around like a loner anyway.

    Haha Jaded it shouldn't be free. But by nature I procrastinate. At least I needn't feel too bad about it this time with loads of time before exams.

    I'll see if I can get Dean Bailey to pose with Coxy for you; hot :wub:

    Now you can understand why I am jealous that you get to go to training tomorrow while I get to spend yet another day swearing at my computer.

    I noted with interest that Pettard appears much bigger in his picture in China. Did anyone else notice this?

    I might as well get down there. Exams finished today.

    I thought so, he looked much older or something, too. Broader? Not so much the skinny kid, he looked like he'd put on shoulders since the last time I saw him!

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
